 Very disappointed.... July 23, 2010
Devendra S. Mistry (San Diego, CA USA)
I have loved Prince of Persia-Sands of Time games on PS2 and since this game looked similar and some people were speaking highly of it, I decided to give it a shot. After finishing the game and unlocking >80% of the secret emails, here is what I thought of it.
PROS.
ACROBATIC ABILITIES: Like in Prince of Persia games, this is one of my favorite aspect of this game. Climbing buildings, jumping from roof to roof, taking leap of faith etc. can be real fun.
OPEN WORLD: I truly like open world games. Between three major cities, there are plenty of open world exploration you can do. My favorite part was to get on top of tall buildings and just admire the beauty of the well designed cities.
TOOLS FOR ASSASSINATION: As the title of the game implies, it is about assassinating targeted individual and to do so, they give you some pretty good weapons. My favorites are hidden blades. Loved taking down enemies with them.
STORY: Have to say, the game has somewhat confusing, but never the less decent story. Can't tell you much without spoiling it.
CONS.
EXTREMELY REDUNDANT MISSIONS: I was expecting they will challenge you with variety of assassination mission, however, most of them are exactly the same. Unfortunate part is they are also very easy. So the first few assassinations were fun; however, after that I was bored to death killing the targets same way over and over again. And difficulty only increases slightly from initial missions to later missions.
EXTREMELY REDUNDANT CHORES: In order to get your mission, you have to do some chores. These chores are EXACTLY THE SAME IN ALL CITIES. By the time you finish the game, you will hate them.
ANNOYING CHORES: Some chores involve annoying task like collecting the flags. HATE IT, ABSOLUTELY HATE IT.
LIMITED VARIETY IN WEAPONS AND UPGRADES: They have few different weapons and upgrades for these weapons, but I was expecting more. Much more.
LIMITED VARIETY IN ENEMIES: There are very few different types of enemies in the game. Again, I was expecting a lot more.
ANNOYING CHASES: So after you assassinate someone, you get chased by the guards, very understandable. If you get caught in public doing something stupid, you get chased, acceptable. Initially, all of these didn't bother me, but as the game get more and more redundant, these chases started to annoy me more and more. What was fun before, became torture now.
WATER = INSTANT DEATH: What the...?? You are master of so many different weapons and skills, but you can't swim!!!! This would not be a problem if some missions and assassination required travel over the water.
To me, Cons easily outweighed the Pros and what was supposed to be an enjoyable experience, turned out to be a great punishment. SO I REGRETTED GETTING THIS GAME.
Now while it falls the scope of this discussion, Assassins Creed 2 is a completely different story and a great game. Check out my review for it should you are interested.

Game only makes it half way before it says to clean the disk.
I've tried cleaning it multiple times, but nothing works.
 Challenging and Fun July 14, 2010

I'm a huge fan of this game. When I saw the previews, I hoped they weren't going to lie to me. They didn't. Deserving of it's platinum hit title.
There are a few things I didn't like. The fact that apparently you can't swim. That was bull. Otherwise, it was a good play.
 aigh. hands cramping! July 11, 2010

LOL!
Lots of sword-fighting without much stealth towards the end of the game. That doesn't stop this from being a great game. I'd give it a 4½, but I'm rounding up because there's plenty of stealth opportunities earlier in the game.
Burned through it in about 4 days. Still plenty of replay value in it. Best chases evah!
Great Game from Ubisoft July 6, 2010

This game was really an excellent game. If you enjoyed the Prince of Persia Sands of Time game, you'll love this. it has very similar gameplay mechanics such as in combat there's much more to do besides just hitting the slash button, there's the parkour (free running) element of the game which is just a lot of fun and the story seems pretty decent. my one thing is i have yet to find a way to skip the cut scenes revolving around the story and so there's no way to speed the game up...Also, when you play as Desmond you can't do anything which is a little weak in my opinion but since you're almost always Altair, i guess it's not a big deal.
